A. Regarding the supplements u should consult your pediatrician as for when to stop giving them. And u should start feeding solids when the child's corrected age is six months (around 8 months for ur baby as he is 2 months premature). You can Start with Dal or chawal ka pani, after few days start with Fruit purees like apples, pear, avacado, papaya, mashed banana, vegetable puree like carrots, pumpkin, peas, mashed sweet potato or potatoes, pulses, porridge like ragi or oats, veg rice, dal rice, veg kichdi, RASAM rice, steamed idli, home made cereals. Start with easily digestible foods first during day time and then move on to the heavy ones. Always follow this two day gap rule between introducing new foods. Also avoid using sugar and salt until the baby is one year old.
